Lady Croupier

deceiver?  
tangled web weaver?  
to my address delivered  
these roles unfamiliar  
   
will desire thrive so strong  
rend documents emotionally torn  
force steps out the door  
to untethered explore?  
   
I`m aware,  
not distracted  
yet somehow    
she`s enacted  
my atheist faith  
before turn of Club or Spade  
devoid of shade    
Lady Croupier  
   
she bypassed alarm systems  
but ya cant call me a victim  
Weightless Spirit Benign  
infiltrated heart and mind  
   
Whose the one to say  
"Your dues have been payed"?  
Moral Compass lost  
or merely misplaced?  
Time  
Generates light    
will it shadow wrong  
or shine on right?  
   
my cornerstone shaken  
before action taken  
despite wonders implied  
conflicted I fly  
will we play?  
I make no claim  
devoid of shade  
Lady Croupier
